Wendy’s determination startled Lady Wilson. At the same time, she also felt a chill down her back.She was shocked because she did not expect that Wendy, whom she had always led by the nose, had become more and more powerful ever since she had taken up the position as the manager of the etiquette company. She even made it clear that everyone in the family would have to obey her from now on.As for the chills down her back, it was because she realized that Wendy had never forgiven her for what she had done back then. The only reason why Wendy was still taking care of her instead of taking revenge on her was mainly because she was old. However, Wendy had already made herself very clear. If she really continued relying on her age to cause trouble, she would really be left with nothing and no one to depend on.Lady Wilson was not a fool. She knew that in a family, whoever controlled the money had the right to speak for the whole family.She was old and had no assets. It was even a pr
Since Hiroshi had arrived in Aurous Hill a few days earlier ahead of the Ito family, he specially arranged for a convoy to pick them up today.When the Ito family left the airport by car, the flowers that arrived at random were also transported away by multiple refrigerated trucks that were prepared in advance. Although Charlie was the only thing on Nanako’s mind, she still chose Shangri-La as her first stop. However, Yahiko did not go to Shangri-La, but was taken to Thompson First by Hiroshi. Yahiko did not plan to go to Shangri-La before the wedding because he was a well-known figure in Japan, after all, and he was worried that he would be seen by too many people, thus exposing the secret of his legs regenerating. Isaac only got the news when Nanako’s convoy arrived at Shangri-La.Upon learning of her arrival, Isaac called Charlie immediately and reported the news to Charlie. When Charlie heard that Nanako was here, his first reaction was to be very pleasantly surprised. It
Rosalie nodded slightly and then asked Nanako, “By the way, Miss Nanako, did you tell Mr. Wade in advance before coming here today?”“No.” Nanako said somewhat shyly, “Charlie-kun must be busier on weekdays, so I didn’t tell him in advance.”Rosalie smiled and said, “Even if you didn’t tell him, Mr. Cameron would have already told him as soon as possible. Mr. Wade attaches so much importance to you, so he might already be on his way here now.”Nanako blushed and said, “No... I think Charlie-kun also attaches great importance to you...”Rosalie said shyly, “I... I’m not in the same situation as you... I’m Mr. Wade’s subordinate, but you’re Mr. Wade’s confidante...”Nanako looked at her and asked curiously, “Are you really just his subordinate?”Rosalie said somewhat unnaturally for a moment, “I’m really just his subordinate. Mr. Wade has saved me many times and helped me a lot, so I naturally have to stay by his side to repay his kindness to me. Therefore, I’m naturally just his s
Upon hearing this voice, the three women looked around and saw that Charlie had already stepped into Sky Garden. The three women unconsciously had excited expressions on their faces at this moment. As they knew that Charlie was talking about Sophie’s brother, Rosalie and Nanako simply smiled at Charlie without saying a word. Sophie was overjoyed and quickly confirmed again with Charlie, “Mr. Wade, you mean that you can bring my brother back?”“Yes.” Charlie nodded and said calmly, “But he can only attend the wedding. He will have to continue with his unfinished punishment after the wedding.”Sophie subconsciously asked, “Mr. Wade, if my brother comes back to attend the wedding, will he return to the place where he was picked up or will he have to start from the beginning again?”Charlie laughed and said, “Of course he will start from the place where he was picked up. How can I let him start from the beginning?”Sophie heaved a sigh of relief and said gratefully, “Thank you fo
At this moment, Jaime, who was walking on the land of Sandskirts, continued his pilgrimage even though he had a scruffy beard and was covered in tatters. Although he was dressed in rags, he wore thick protective gear on his hands and knees. He would kneel every three steps he took, then grovel before getting up. After getting up, he would take another three steps and continue to grovel, and the cycle continued. In the beginning, Jaime’s body simply could not bear such high-intensity movement at all. His body had suffered a lot. He had already reached his limit by walking three to four kilometers a day, which was much slower compared to the speed of ten kilometers a day for regular believers. However, with the passage of time and the longer the journey, he gradually adapted to this rhythm and gradually increased from three to four kilometers a day to the current seven to eight kilometers.He had traveled more than a thousand kilometers in more than five months. Jaime originally
“Your young master?!”Jaime asked in surprise, “May I ask who is your young master?”The middle-aged man said respectfully, “My young master is Charlie Wade from Aurous Hill!”“Charlie Wade?!” Jaime was shocked when he learned that the middle-aged man in front of him was actually sent by Charlie to take him home.He looked at the man and asked in surprise, “You said that Mr. Wade has asked me to go back?”“Yes.” The middle-aged man nodded and said seriously, “The plane is already waiting to take off at the airport. Mr. Wade’s intention is to send you back to Aurous Hill as soon as possible.”Jaime’s eyes widened as he spoke up, “May I know why Mr. Wade is asking me to go back now when I haven’t reached the end of my journey yet?”The middle-aged man did not hide anything and said directly, “Mr. Jaime, your father, Sheldon Schulz, is getting married soon, and the wedding will be held in Aurous Hill. Mr. Wade’s intention is for me to pick you up so you can go back and attend the w
Charlie’s cell phone suddenly vibrated, and he opened it to find that it was a video sent by Isaac. This was also the video that he had specially instructed Isaac to arrange for someone to capture in secret, to take a look at Jaime’s true state now.Charlie’s impression of Jaime changed a lot after seeing Jaime’s performance.The reason why he had asked Jaime to grovel was not simply to punish him, but also to give him a chance to reflect on himself. There were countless ways to punish him. In fact, the best way would be to put him in a kennel like Jiro and let him be with the dogs all day long.However, in Charlie’s opinion, Jaime was still Sophie’s brother, and he was also Aunt Helen’s son. If he could return to the right path, it would also be a good thing for Sophie and the entire Schulz family. Charlie originally thought that Jaime would have to wait until the entire experience was over before he would really change from the bottom of his heart, but judging from Jaime’s cur
From the very beginning, Nanako had no intention to hide her decision to buy a house at Thompson First from Charlie.Her only thought was to come to Aurous Hill in advance to give Charlie a small surprise. As for the matter of buying a house, she preferred to let Charlie know openly and honestly. Charlie did not expect that Nanako would buy a house at Thompson First, so he asked her curiously, “When did it happen? Which house did you buy?”Nanako said with a smile, “I bought an apartment unit facing the river as the villas are all sold out.”With that said, Nanako added, “I initially planned to buy a more classical villa, but Tanaka-san has been here for several days and was still unable to find a suitable villa, so he simply decided to buy the apartment unit at Thompson First yesterday.”Charlie nodded slightly and said with a smile, “We will be neighbors from now on. You’re welcome to settle down in Aurous Hill.”Charlie had always had a good impression of Nanako, but he did n
